C4D and Octane Tutorial: 3 Point Lighting and the Octane Universal Material in Octane

Hi, this is Part 3 of Creating a Wibbly Wobbly Wheel Animation: The Octane is the follow up to parts one and two. In this tutorial I go through my process of lighting and texturing the scene we created, in Octane. First I will create a three-point lighting set up and show you how this works and then I will be adding extra lights to the scene to make the scene a bit more dynamic. I briefly cover the Universal Material, to create simple materials for our scene. If you would like to use Redshift, then you can watch that version here: You don’t have to watch Parts one and two, as this is about lighting and textures. But if you would like to follow along then you can watch parts one and two first. Part one: Part Two: In this tutorial I use a PBR material that I downloaded from .
